Viac o knihe
The book presents a critical examination of capital punishment, arguing that opponents must strengthen their philosophical arguments to effectively challenge its existence. Davis dissects pro-death penalty arguments, asserting their philosophical superiority, and links the death penalty to a broader theory of punishment that emphasizes retribution proportional to the crime. He contends that a reevaluation of the criminal justice system is necessary, advocating for more effective approaches to addressing violent crime before the abolition of the death penalty can be realized.
